Many actors and local interests embedded in networks characterize environmental conservation policies in the Brazilian Amazon. This paper assumes that these networks both influence, and are influenced by (i) power relation dynamics; (ii) the position of the actors in the network; (iii) density of the network; (iv) diversity; and (v) types of interaction. These components help to assess collaboration and/or conflict resolution mechanisms in the governance process. This study conducted fieldwork in the Jaú National Park, in the Rio Unini Extractive Reserve, and in the Amanã Sustainable Development Reserve in order to understand the policy process and environmental governance in protected areas in the Brazilian Amazon. Results show that the Federal Government, NGOs, and local inhabitants are embedded in a heterogeneous network which is closed up to a moderate level or even up to a high one, revealing either a concentration of power with hierarchical cooperation or fragmented power relations with horizontal cooperation.

Policy actors address complex environmental problems by engaging in multiple and often interdependent policy issues. Policy issue interdependencies imply that efforts by actors to address separate policy issues can either reinforce (‘win-win’) or counteract (‘trade-off’) each other. Thus, if interdependent issues are managed in isolation instead of being coordinated, the most effective and well-balanced solution to the underlying problem might never be realised. This study asks if reinforcing and counteracting interdependencies have different impacts on perception and collaboration. Our empirical study of collaborative water governance in the Norrström basin, Sweden, shows that policy actors often avoid collaborating when the policy issues exhibit reinforcing interdependencies. Our evidence indicates a perceived infeasibility of acting on reinforcing interdependencies. We also find that actors do not consider counteracting interdependencies (‘trade-offs’) at all when they engage in collaboration. Further, even though actors were aware of counteracting and reinforcing interdependencies, our analyses suggest they might be less aware of the former. These findings illustrate that actors either avoid each other due to policy issue interdependencies or, at best, ignore existing interdependencies when engaging in collaboration. Our study highlights the importance of problem perception in accomplishing integrated solutions to complex environmental problems, and of how understandings of different types of interdependencies shape collaboration in environmental governance.
This dataset consists of social network analysis data and policy issue network data. Network data consists of nodes (rows and columns) and links (matrix cells). In the social network data, rows and columns represent actors and matrix cells their collaboration. 1 indicates collaboration, 0 indicates no collaboration. In the policy issue network data, rows and columns represent policy issues, and matrix cells their reinforcing or counteracting interdependencies. Two different policy issue networks (one reinforcing and one counteracting) are represented. The actor-issue file reports the engagement of an actor in a given issue, i.e. that the actor works with that specific issue. The data also includes an actor attribute file, where each row represents the same actor as in the social network data and each column a specific attribute that might characterise the actor (1-yes,0-no). The data files are compatible with the free software MpNet (http://www.melnet.org.au/pnet), and for running Exponential Random Graph Models.

Global Environmental Governance : Social-Ecological Perspectives is a book. It was written by Karl Bruckmeier and published by PalgraveMacmillan in 2019.
The 2002 Environmental Sustainability Index (ESI) measures overall progress toward environmental sustainability for 142 countries based on environmental systems, stresses, human vulnerability, social and institutional capacity and global stewardship. The addition of a climate change indicator, reduction in number of capacity indicators, and an improved imputation methodology contributed to an improvement from the 2001 ESI. The index was unveiled at the World Economic Forum's annual meeting, January 2002, New York. The 2002 ESI is the result of collaboration among the World Economic Forum (WEF), Yale Center for Environmental Law and Policy (YCELP), and the Columbia University Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN).

The 2008 Environmental Performance Index (EPI) centers on two broad environmental protection objectives: (1) reducing environmental stresses on human health, and (2) promoting ecosystem vitality and sound natural resource management. Derived from a careful review of the environmental literature, these twin goals mirror the priorities expressed by policymakers. Environmental health and ecosystem vitality are gauged using 25 indicators tracked in six well-established policy categories: Environmental Health (Environmental Burden of Disease, Water, and Air Pollution), Air Pollution (effects on ecosystems), Water (effects on ecosystems), Biodiversity and Habitat, Productive Natural Resources (Forestry, Fisheries, and Agriculture), and Climate Change. The 2008 EPI utilizes a proximity-to-target methodology in which performance on each indicator is rated on a 0 to 100 scale (100 represents �at target�). By identifying specific targets and measuring how close each country comes to them, the EPI provides a foundation for policy analysis and a context for evaluating performance. Issue-by-issue and aggregate rankings facilitate cross-country comparisons both globally and within relevant peer groups. The 2008 EPI is the result of collaboration among the Yale Center for Environmental Law and Policy (YCELP), Columbia University Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN), World Economic Forum (WEF), and the Joint Research Centre (JRC), European Commission.

How do political authorities in China respond to mounting environmental problems? Moreover, on what basis do they succeed in securing public approval in the realm of environmental governance? In this study, I argue that local authorities perform "symbolic responsiveness" as a strategy to manage public opinion over environmental issues. Furthermore, symbolic responsiveness is effective in generating public approval, despite the lack of, and sometimes at the expense of appreciable improvement in environmental quality. Data collected in 2014-2015.

Decentralization in environmental governance : a post-contingency approach is a book. It was written by Christian Zuidema and published by Routledge in 2016.
The 2018 Environmental Performance Index (EPI) ranks 180 countries on 24 performance indicators in the following 10 issue categories: air quality, water and sanitation, heavy metals, biodiversity and habitat, forests, fisheries, climate and energy, air pollution, water resources, and agriculture. These categories track performance and progress on two broad policy objectives, environmental health and ecosystem vitality. The EPI's proximity-to-target methodology facilitates cross-country comparisons among economic and regional peer groups. The data set includes the 2018 EPI, component scores, and time-series source data. The 2018 EPI was formally released in Davos, Switzerland, at the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum in January 2018. It is the result of collaboration of the Yale Center for Environmental Law and Policy (YCELP), Yale University, Columbia University Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN), and the World Economic Forum (WEF). The Interactive Website for the 2018 EPI is at https://epi.envirocenter.yale.edu/.

Climate change poses numerous risks to businesses, leading to growing attention from governments and stakeholders toward corporate climate change disclosures. However, whether these disclosures can effectively drive companies to enhance their carbon reduction efforts remains an urgent question. Using panel data from heavily polluting companies in China, this study employs generalized structural equation modeling (GSEM) to empirically examine the moderating effects of government-level climate governance and corporate-level environmental governance on the relationship between climate change disclosure and carbon performance. The results indicate that the interaction between climate governance and climate change disclosure significantly promotes improvements in carbon performance, whereas the impact of corporate environmental governance is comparatively limited. These findings underscore the critical role of government-driven climate governance in enhancing the effectiveness of climate change disclosures and provide practical recommendations for policymakers and corporations to improve climate disclosure practices and advance carbon reduction efforts.
